Five Seconds of Fame

 

Trevi Fountain Roma

Uploaded to Flickr.com on February 2, 2010

A photo that I actually took five years ago of the Trevi fountain in Roma has been published, along with hundreds of others, in the latest edition of the online guide to Roma produced by  Schmap Guides

Roma

The photo was used with my prior permission and following Flickr guidelines links back to the original if you click on the photo. I also get credited, hence my five seconds of fame.

My Trevi Fountain Photo click on the link in blue to see my photo on Flickr or cut and paste the link below if clicking on that does not work either.

Five seconds of fame may be not much but I am still chuffed.

  6. Well!!! I suppose it will cost money to be seen with you now!!! It's a nice photo - you are good at photography. I don't seem to be able to produce a really good picture even with an automatic, does-it-all-for-you, moron-proof camera! Oh well - but I have other talents. My story and I'm sticking to it!

    Much love, Maggie xxx

  9. Aha! I've got one of my pics in Schmap too, but a Hawaii image. Would you consider even more fame? House Hunters International in Italy is casting for their show. Shoot me an email if you're interested. (you've probably already been contacted by them anyway)

  11. Congratulations, I'm learning to use my camera properly with varied results! I've got a Flickr account which has nearly filled up and I'm not sure if I should upgrade - do you think the Pro account is worth it?
